Proceeds are to cover costs incurred by Lopez's family in the wake of an Oct. 22 encounter on Moorland Avenue, in which a deputy who reportedly mistook the teen's BB gun for an assault rifle shot and killed him.

Santa Rosa police, who are investigating the shooting, said Lopez's back was turned when he was ordered to put the weapon down. In the seconds before he was killed, police say, the teen instead began to turn toward the deputy, causing the BB gun barrel to rise and prompting the deputy to fire his sidearm.

Lopez's death has caused community-wide grief, anger and protests.
